The people demanded it. These

Frankfort has shaken the grip

not pride enough for their county
seat, and their State capital. and
their neighbors in the capital, to

Whilst there are many things
that make my heart glad there are
some things that make me sad.
The Bald Knobers have you peo-
pie of Frankfort charged with
voting negro boys who were too
young to be listed in the school
list Will the judges Of the cleo
ton in Frankfort write me a pri-
vate note and tell me if it is so?
In Bald Knob there are a great
many little fellows abusing and
cursing Dan Moore for allowing
the sovereign free voters Of Frank
lin county the right to say whether
they wanted the tax or not. and
prasing one Of the county court,
who voted against the freemen of
the county saying whether they
would. tax themselves or not.
Poor, weak mortal, what a states
man he imagines he is when he
denies freemen the right Of pc
tition. The Gar of Russia pales in
his serene presence. The poor little
monarch wants to be elected asan.
After promising other parties if
they would vote for certain
measure, which would put several
hundred in his pocket, he was
ready to vote the railroad or any
thing else; but when that illus
trious day arrived he voted NO.
Have they caught Buckncr yet?
Do the Central Committee keep
him tied? He reminds me of the
snake that the farmer found frozen
stiff, who after being tenderly
cared for and warmed, sunk his
fangs in the leg of his benefactor.
Buckner was educated by the
Federal Government which he
labored SO hard to destroy, and is
now opposed to the Blair bill
saying to the poor men Of Ken
lucky that their poor little ragged,
dirty.nosed children shall not have
the benefit of Federal aid. Free
men Of Kentucky will you stand
this? He received classic edu-
cation at the expense Of that same
government, but is opposed to
the poor mans child advancing as
far as baker. Stand it poor
men, it will be the making of
Buckner, but it will be hard on
your poor little ragged, helpless
girls and boys.
Good bye dear nephew. shall
be invisible for a week or so.

P. S. Since the above was
penned, l have heard that strang
ulated hernia is prevailing to an
alarming degree among those
(only) who opposed the railroad
tax. I'm happy to inform you
that Dan. Moore is all right.
Please advise Drs. Hume, Price
and others so that they may read
up on strangulated hernia.

July 18th, 1887. !

Dear Roundabout:
l am spending the week near
the above place, enjoying the
country air. The days are warm,
but the nights are cool and pleas
ant. One can hardly realize the
fact of the difference in the atmos-
phere between country and town
At I o'clock, p. m. the thermom-
eter is 90. l am writing in the
hall while there is a pleasant
breeze passing through. After
shutdown it becomes very pleasant.
In my rambles through the day,
walking and riding horse back,
stopping now and then to eat
blackberries by the way in the
fence corners, never failing to be
on hand at meal times, and weigh
ing three pounds more than when
l came, gaining pound day.
Whether this gain is in flesh or
quantity Of food have eaten, re-
mains to be told. The exercise
and pure air causes me to eat.
The eating, | care not what it is.
or how much, does not disagree
with me. At home, l care not
how little l eat, every thing disa-
grees with me, causing me to feel
"sorter. kinder miserable. " This
comes nearer telling it than know
how to do it. but enough about

and got so much railroad in my
head could not write about any
thing else. But as the road, so
far as Franklin county is concerned,
is out of the way, will commence
now on Frankfort and Franklin
county.
AS you know, Ispent the winter
in Florida. While there / met
people from almost all points Of
the world. l learned something
from all this. l found the inhabi-
tants of every town working for
their town. / found hotels "going
up" at almost every station, on
every road, over which l travelled,
to accommodate people who
should come into the State from
other cold States to spend the
winter to get out of the cold, ice
and snow Of their own States.
The people who go to Florida,
as general thing, are wealthy.
They spend the winters there-the
summer at different summer re-
sorts in the North. Hotel-keep-
ers from the North run the hotels
in Florida in the winter, then no.
tells at some other summer resort
in the summer. Every town in
Florida advertises, each one their
terms, in newspapers and circu-
lars, and send broadcast over the
whole country and Europe. Be-
sides. they employ one or more
men and keep them on the road
all the time, working up "boom"
for their town, by talking and dis
tributing these circulars the year
round.
Florida was almost unknown
until the last few years. She
commenced advertising, showing
her fruits, &C., in the Louisville
Exposition. Six years ago Orlan-
do, Fla, did not have more than
a dozen houses in it. Now she
claims to have 5000 inhabitants,
with gas-works, water-works,
street railways, two railroads run
ming into it, and two more on the
way.
Frankfort is the most beautifully
located place for a city Of any
place, to my knowledge, on earth.
The scenery is certainly grand. l

/ turned the conversation to sport,
on which Zebhr is a great authority.
Most, il not all, of the big game Of
Africa have fallen to his rifle, and he
told me some wonderful yarns of his
adventures with lions and elephants.
He told me that his favorite method of
hunting the latter was on horseback
and armed only with sword. His plan
was to ride up alongside the elephant
and, rapidly dismounting, hamstring
him with blow from the sword, and
when the huge beast was thus put hors
du combat he was dispatched with
spears. 1t is necessary to have several
mounted men, one of whom attracts
the attention of the elephant while the
others creep up and hamstring him.
This method of hunting was reported
on by Sir Samuel Baker as common
among the Hamram Arabs: but Zebhi
is the only Arab 1 have met who has
told me he has practiced it.-Philadet
